What Is A Canapé Dessert?  

A canapé dessert is essentially a small, bite-sized sweet treat typically served at parties or events. Sweet canapés usually consist of a base like a pastry, as well as a sweet topping like a filling, fruit, cream, or chocolate. They are also usually served on a platter. 

Easy Bite-Size Desserts For Parties 

Angie’s catering service provides exceptional delivered catering around London. With over 10 years of experience, our chef-owned and -managed business ensures that good food remains at the heart of what we do.  

Our food is fresh and delicious and prepared to order in our kitchen in Chiswick, then delivered to you ready to serve, eliminating the stress of entertaining. You can make use of our catering service for both home and work events, making it the perfect solution for any occasion. With Angie’s, you won’t have to worry about costly on-site chefs either! 

The backbone of our catering service is Angie Steele herself, and she is one of London’s highly respected chefs. She was born in South Africa and started working in the family restaurant at the young age of 13. She was then trained in Cordon Bleu and worked in a luxury safari lodge before moving to London.  

Angie has had the pleasure of working under some of London’s best Michelin-starred chefs, giving her a wealth of experience and flair that she brings to the catering service. She has worked with Gordon Ramsay at Claridge’s and Jason Atherton at Maze, not to mention cooked privately for multiple A-list clients. Angie has more than earned her a reputation as a highly respected and beloved London chef. 

In 2010, Angie won a national catering award as head chef at The Recipe. She has also worked and appeared on Gordon Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares, The ‘F’ Word, and Iron Chef.  

Here at Angie’s, our catering service specialises in providing top-quality platters to both domestic and corporate customers. In fact, we are proud to say that our list of satisfied clients includes big names like AMEX, Blackstone, Discovery, Auto Trader and Sipsmith.  

Our platter selection ensures that all of your guests will feel included, as we have a range of options for you to choose from. While some of our platters feature red and white meats or seafood, we also offer vegetarian platters, vegan platters and gluten-free options.  

With Angie’s, you can always be sure that you will receive delicious food that looks as good as it tastes and caters to a variety of discerning palates.  

Mini Sweet Canapés | Chocolate Brownies With Berries 

If you are looking for something indulgent, rich and sweet, look no further than our delectable Chocolate Brownies with Berries. This is one of our beloved desserts thanks to its decadent flavour and texture and is bound to knock your guests’ socks off.  

Made with only the highest-quality ingredients (brown sugar, butter, flour, dark chocolate, cocoa powder, milk and eggs), these brownies will linger in your guests’ minds long after they’ve enjoyed their last bite. They also include a vibrant mix of raspberries, strawberries and blueberries. 

Before serving these to your guests, however, keep in mind that they are not gluten-free or vegan-friendly (we have other desserts for that). Also, remember that our kitchen does handle sesame seeds, nuts and soya, so anyone with allergies should be careful before tucking into our platters.  

Whether you’re looking for a sweet treat to share with friends or an impressive platter to do the rounds at your next corporate events, Angie’s Chocolate Brownies with Berries is the perfect choice for dairy lovers with a sweet tooth.  

Easy Sweet Canapés | Blueberry, Pistachio And White Chocolate Mini Bundt Cakes 

For a delectable dessert, you need to try Angie’s Blueberry, Pistachio and White Chocolate Mini Bundt Cakes. These delicious almond cakes are made with only the highest-quality ingredients, including butter, caster sugar, and ground almonds.  

To give the cakes a fruity kick, we also add blueberry powder, raspberry flavouring, and dehydrated raspberry to the batter. Each canapé is topped with delicious buttercream (a mixture of butter, icing sugar and cream), white chocolate buttons, and, of course, a fresh raspberry or blueberry. Each cake is moist, flavourful, and bursting with fruity goodness. 

Our Blueberry, Pistachio and White Chocolate Mini Bundt Cakes are perfect for any occasion, whether you are hosting a party or just treating yourself to something special. Each platter contains 35-40 small bite-sized pieces, making them perfect for sharing with friends and loved ones. Furthermore, with their gluten-free and vegetarian-friendly recipe, these tasty delights make for a guilt-free treat that everyone can enjoy! 

Sweet Canapés | Lemon & Elderflower Mini Bundt Cake 

Angie’s Lemon and Elderflower Mini Bundt Cakes are similar to the blueberry and pistachio version, but not entirely the same. We use the same base ingredients (butter, eggs, castor sugar) but this recipe also contains cornflour, lemon, thyme, and raspberries. The lemon and thyme make for a fantastic flavour combination and add something a little different to your standard platters.  

The mini bundt cakes are also topped with mouthwatering buttercream and raspberries and sprinkled with pretty elderflowers. These are also completely gluten-free and vegetarian-friendly! 

Easy Sweet Finger Food Ideas  

When you are feeding a group of people all on your own without the help of a caterer, it can prove rather difficult to come up with ideas for various dishes. Luckily, at Angie’s, we make it simple and convenient for you to feed and please the crowd with a range of sweet canapé platters to choose from.  

Mixed Cake Platter 

Angie’s Mixed Cake Platter is a great choice if you need to feed a group of people and want to give them plenty of dessert choices. The platter includes both the Lemon and Elderflower Mini Bundt Cakes and the Blueberry, Pistachio and White Chocolate Mini Bundt Cakes, so your guests can enjoy either – or both!  

Mixed Fruit Platter 

The mother of all-inclusive platters, this baby is vegetarian, vegan and completely free of both gluten and dairy products. It’s a no-brainer when it comes to feeding a room of people with different dietary requirements, preferences, intolerances and allergies. With our Mixed Fruit Platter, everyone can enjoy a yummy treat and share the experience with each other.  

This platter offers an array of fruit and berries, including delicious mango, pineapple, and kiwis, as well as fresh raspberries and blueberries for your guests to try out. The platter is also plated beautifully because we know all too well that everyone eats with their eyes.  

Vegan Caramel Shortbread 

It is not easy to find sweet canapés that your vegan friends can eat, and making them yourself can be even more challenging. We know that there are plenty of vegan eaters out there today, so we are pleased to offer a platter of our incredible Vegan Caramel Shortbread.  

Sweet, crunchy and packed with flavour, our shortbread is made with coconut milk powder and plant-based oils, as well as gluten-free flour. The Palm Oil in the recipe is also Certified Sustainable so every bite is completely guilt-free. Keep in mind, however, that the recipe does include both soya and nuts so check in with your guests about their allergies before serving. 

Dessert Canapés Catering | How It Works 

Angie’s catering service has simplified the ordering process, making it easy for our customers to order food for gatherings. The process is straightforward, and it takes just a few clicks to complete your order.  

Firstly, you need to choose your food selection from the website. There is a range of platter options for sweet canapés that you can choose from.  

Once you have made your food selection, you can simply choose the delivery date and time that you would like your order to arrive. We offer the flexibility of ordering up to four weeks in advance. However, to ensure timely delivery, you need to place your order at least 48 hours before your event.  

You can receive a delivery from us anywhere within the M25 and we dispatch the food directly from our kitchen in Chiswick via courier or taxi. Another great feature of our catering service is that your treats will arrive on biodegradable platters, ready to serve. The platters are also presented beautifully, making them ideal for any event. 

Once you receive your platters, all you have to do is remove the lid, and the food is ready to serve at room temperature. One thing to keep in mind is that our platters are best eaten on the delivery day as they are prepared on that same day and this is when the delicacies will be at their freshest.  

Each of our platters of sweet canapés include around 40 bite-sized canapés per plate. Angie also recommends around 4 to 6 canapés per person for pre-dinner events. For drinks parties, around 8 to 12 canapés per person should do the trick.  

All of the allergens that are present in each platter will be clearly marked in each product description, so do not worry. Your patrons can easily make educated and informed choices before they bite into anything they shouldn’t!  

When it comes to our cost of delivery, the charges are based on the postcode of delivery and will be displayed during checkout. Alternatively, you can choose to collect your order from our mothership café in Chiswick, located on Chiswick High Road
